kn707160-5.jpg

GT2860R-707160-5 turbo changers which are direct replacement items for the Nissan skyline R32/33/34 GTR. They are rated to 360hp each, 720hp combined, and have the following specifications:

* Ball bearing

* Oil & Water-cooled bearing system

* T25 turbine inlet flange with threaded bolt holes instead of traditional through holes

* Turbine housing has a unique "compact" 5-bolt outlet that is not interchangeable with traditional T25 5-bolt outlets

* Turbine housing is cast from high-nickel "Ni-Resist" material for extreme applications

* Turbine wheel is cast from "Inconel" material for extreme applications

* Direct replacement upgrade turbocharger for GT2556R (702987-7) used on Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R

* Great size for applications w/ packaging constraints

* Ideal for smaller displacement engines making up to 360 hp

* Turbine housing option available

* Turbine housing options allow turbo to be outline-interchangeable with other turbos using the traditional 5-bolt turbine housing. Housing fits over turbine wheel but actuator/wastegate fitment may need to be adjusted.

i also bought some dumps

Call Nissan with your VIN or GCG - they will be able to supply them and will know the sizes. Make sure you get inconel ones and not just high tensile for the turbo hot side - high tensile tend to stretch from heat + gravity.

    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
